SEX ED FOR YOU: Where Research Meets Reality

Submission in Partnership, The Bachelor, and Polyamory


Listen Later

In this episode of Sex Ed For You: Where Research Meets Reality, Lauren and I start off by watching a recent reel post by Madion Prewitt, a former contestant on the Bachelor. This video started a conversation on submission within partnership, division of labor in households, and the importance of respecting your partner. We also dive into why the Bachelor/ette dating shows not only don’t work, but also are a horrible representation of polyamory; glorifying an unbalanced model of what can be a really healthy approach to consensual non-monogamy. We touch on the topic of mind-reading in relationships and how it’s important to communicate your needs; not just expect a partner to know them off the bat. Last but not least, we emphasize the importance of NOT putting sex on a pedestal; relationships are so so much more than just a p*nis and a v*gina.
